Listen, if I said I asked my wife if she believes in ghosts, and in the next sentence say WE don't believe in ghosts; that would mean me and my wife don't believe in ghosts. That does not imply every atheist on the planet doesn't.
We are also married, but that does not imply that you are.
We doesn't always mean everyone, especially after you specify the people you are talking about.
He made a joke, him and Casper are atheists, and don't believe in ghosts. I think you need to try reading it again.
That is definitely not what he meant, because in the very next sentence he says "as atheists," referring to the we. And if that is what he meant, I would be thrilled to have him clarify himself, and not have someone else do it for him.
